It depends on who you talk to; some very famous computer science authors have always claimed that computer science (or information security) is an art because there isn't an exact, repeatable way of doing things in a rigorous scientific manner. Some practitioners have to do things by trial and error or by process of elimination, which hardly qualifies itself as a 'science'. Essentially, you learn by doing, or by learning in a way usually attached to an art, such as learning to play an instrument.

Others can claim that it is a science, because it has rigorous repeatable ideas that can be proven.

As to the social science aspect I cannot answer. Perhaps another contributor with a social science background can comment.
